WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Arthur Allen Freiboth
Case No.: 2015AP2535-CR
Officials: Sherman, Blanchard, and Kloppenburg, JJ.
Focus: Plea Colloquy
Arthur Freiboth appeals a judgment of conviction and a circuit court order denying, without an evidentiary hearing, his motion for post-sentencing plea withdrawal. Freiboth contends that the court had a duty to advise him as part of the plea colloquy about the DNA surcharges that he would be required to pay as a result of his pleas, and the court failed to so advise him, entitling him to withdraw his pleas. We conclude that this argument is foreclosed by the combined holdings of State v. Muldrow, 2018 WI 52, 381 Wis. 2d 492, 912 N.W.2d 74, and State v. Williams, 2018 WI 59, 381 Wis. 2d 661, 912 N.W.2d 373. Accordingly, we affirm.
